About Xavier
Expert Analysis
Devontae Cobb | Prep Hoops Scout
An extremely athletic, bouncy forward whose game is defined by vertical pop, explosive second jumps, and elite reactive athleticism. Off two feet or one, he elevated effortlessly off the ground displaying quick-twitch lift with violent intent, playing well above the rim on both ends. Defensively, Young’s shot-blocking prowess jumped off the screen. He’s not just tall or long but elite timing and spatial awareness, tracking drivers from the weak side and meeting shots at their peak for clean rejections, often igniting transition the other way. As a dunker, his package is dynamic and forceful. He runs the floor hard, finishing lobs and drop-offs with above-the-rim authority. Young’s motor paired with that bounce makes him a constant vertical threat, even when plays break down.
